In bitcoin core v0.15.1 , policy,cpp, IsStandard() , the condition (scriptPubKey.size() > nMaxDatacarrierBytes) is met, and so it gives error of {"code"=>-26, "message"=>"64: scriptpubkey"}

What do we check the size of scriptPubKey against a number ?

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

the datacarriersize controls the OP_RETURN script size. the small size of 80 is to prevent arbitrary data from getting into blockchain.

in BCH, the size is increased to 220 bytes.
